when he made the move around the turn, it for sure had as much oomph as the Derby and the Preakness.
There is no question he moved prematurely, and it cost him 2nd, if not the race (I dont really agree that there was no way he was beating Summer Bird).
Dunkirk ran a good race too, and dug in after MTB passed him at the top of the stretch.
